17/02/14 - Last day in community and farewell house party........

Today was my final day in the community, I planned and paid for a party at my host home and invited my friends from the community, colleges from KAVIPE and some family friends. I paid for someone to cook for us so that the house helpers could have a break and also enjoy the party. I also bought Fish, Chicken and Meat and everything to go with it for 20+ people.

During the day i had my hair braided by our neighbour - it really hurt having it done but glad i did before leaving.
